SUMMERTIME DWA SERVICES at the Kontinkangas campus
by Pirkko Viitala 16 Dec '25

16 Dec '25

Kontinkankaan kampuksen välinehuoltopalvelut toimivat pienemmällä palvelukapasiteetilla koko kesälomakauden 23.6.-13.8.2025 ajan, jolloin tavarat ja astiat saattavat tulla valmiiksi normaalia hitaammin. Kiireellisissä asioissa olethan yhteydessä välinehuoltoon s-postilla tai puhelimitse. -17.6.2025 saakka on mahdollista varata soluviljelykaappien pesu ja sterilointi, varaa aika DWA-valinehuolto(a)oulu.fi<mailto:DWA-valinehuolto@oulu.fi> -Soluviljelykaappeja ei pestä eikä steriloida lomajakson aikana. Sterilointikaappien pesu- ja sterilointiaikoja on varattavissa jälleen 14.8.2025 alkaen -Astiat ja steriloitavat tavarat tulee merkitä kunnolla. Vastuu merkinnöistä on aina tavaran tuojalla/ryhmällä. -Jäteastioita ei pidä ylitäyttää maljoilla. Max täyttö jäteastian yläreunaan asti ja maljojen nestetilavuus saa olla max 1Litra/astia. Ylitäytetyt astiat valuttavat nestettä autoklaavin pohjalle. Hyvää Kesää Kaikille! DWA services at the Kontinkangas campus will operate at reduced capacity throughout the holiday season from June 23 to August 13, which may result in slower processing of items and dishes. For urgent matters, please contact Instrument Maintenance via email or phone. * Until June 17, it is possible to book the cleaning and sterilization of cell culture cabinets. Book a time at DWA-valinehuolto(a)oulu.fi<mailto:DWA-valinehuolto@oulu.fi>. * Cell culture cabinets will not be cleaned or sterilized during the holiday period. * Cleaning and sterilization times for sterilization cabinets can be booked again from August 14 onwards. * Items and dishes to be sterilized must be properly labeled. The responsibility for labeling always lies with the person/group bringing the items. * Waste bins should not be overfilled with plates. The maximum fill level is to the top edge of the bin, and the total volume of agar should not exceed 1 liter. Overfilled bins will leak liquid onto the bottom of the autoclave. Have a great summer, everyone!

New time for the safety walk, June 18
by Pirkko Huhtala 13 Jun '25

13 Jun '25

Dear BCO-Kieppi people, We will again organize so-called "safety walks" for BCO-Kieppi people who have not yet participated in them. Please, inform your new group members. We will walk through our premises and locate the emergency exits, fire alarms, fire extinguishers etc, check the meeting point for emergencies, and talk about safety. Participation to this about 30 min walk is obligatory for everybody. This is organized for your own safety. The next possibility to participate: June 18, starting at 14.00 in Finnish, and in English starting at 15.00. Starting point for the tours is top of the Aapistie 5A main staircase, 4th floor. See you there!

Oulun yliopistossa, Tieto- ja sähkötekniikan tiedekunnassa, kehitetään sähköistä DMP pohjaa, joka olisi mahdollisimman tutkijaystävällinen. Projekti on vaiheessa, jossa toivotaan tutkijoita testaamaan kyseistä pohjaa. Kyseistä työkalua vasta kehitetään ja tutkitaan. Päätöstä sen käyttöönotosta ei Oulun yliopistossa ole tehty.

Or have you perhaps got some ideas on how your DMP work could be made easier and less time-consuming? At the University of Oulu, in the Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering, they are developing a digital DMP template. The aim is for the template to be a researcher friendly as possible. The project is now at a stage where researchers are invited to test the template. This tool is still under development and research. The University of Oulu has not yet decided on its adoption. Now is the time to make an impact by testing and providing feedback! - the test uses the Fair Wizard<https://fair-wizard.com/> data management tool - the entire testing process and giving feedback will take about an hour - the test can be paused and resumed later - you can use your existing data management plan or simply test the usability - Note! the template is still under development, and you cannot use it to compile a complete DMP In order to start the user test, please enroll in the test by filling out the ITEE DMS user tests Personal data processing consent<https://link.webropolsurveys.com/Participation/Public/81ae6a68-54c5-4107-99…> and learn about ITEE DMS user tests Data privacy notice<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aMqr9-hq0lSRZhRPhWZapnnJoY7emOXB/view>.

Dear University of Oulu researchers, Have you ever found it tricky or laborious to write a data management plan (DMP) for your project? Or have you perhaps got some ideas on how your DMP work could be made easier and less time-consuming? Machine-actionability has a significant potential to simplify DMP processes and make them easier, faster and more useful to researchers. In ITEE Data Management System development project (ITEE DMS) of the Information Technology and Electrical Engineering faculty (ITEE), we aim to address challenges related to researchers’ DMP work by means of digitalisation and machine-actionability. We are currently launching ITEE DMS user tests of digital DMPs, to better understand researchers’ requirements regarding DMP tools and their features, as well as explore the type of support researchers need when writing the DMP. EXAMPLE: Machine-actionability helps researchers with storage requests. Currently, if you need extra storage space for your research data, you have to write an email to ask ICT services—and this can take time, especially if there are follow-up questions. With a machine-actionable DMP (maDMP), you can just enter how much storage you need (like 2 TB) directly in your plan. The system then automatically sends this information to ICT services in standard format, so they can start handling your request right away. This saves time, avoids extra emails, and makes the whole process smoother and more effortless. We invite you to participate in ITEE DMS user tests. As a voluntary test user, you can contribute to data management and DMP tool development activities in the University of Oulu (UO). In ITEE DMS user tests you will have an opportunity to communicate us your thoughts on what a good DMP tool is like and what type of support you would need for your research data management. Participation in the user tests does not require of you currently running an own research project —what is called for is just some experience in the researcher’s tasks and research data handling. In ITEE DMS user tests, we employ Fair Wizard<https://fair-wizard.com/> data management tool for trying out different types of digital DMPs. If you like to learn about this tool before testing, watch the recording of our Fair Wizard demo<https://oulu.cloud.panopto.eu/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=c9d352d5-dc4a-4f…> that was given in Science IT Cafe on April 3rd. You may also have a look at the Fair Wizard demo presentation slides<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kU2FaiXTsMYTQFwEqy_nGVlMrXFFdv_L/view?usp=…>. What are the ITEE DMS user tests like and what are you expected to do in them? If you decide to attend ITEE DMS user tests, you will try out online two DMP templates by filling out selected parts of these templates. After this, you will be asked to give feedback on the templates through a feedback questionnaire. In the feedback questionnaire, we also present you some future maDMP use cases and ask you to assess their usefulness to your work. The test duration is approximately one hour. You may attend the user tests anytime by July 7th 2025, independently and in your preferred location. For the testing, you will be provided with a temporary user account of Fair Wizard<https://fair-wizard.com/> data management tool. In order to start the user test, please enrol in the test by filling out the ITEE DMS user tests Personal data processing consent<https://link.webropolsurveys.com/Participation/Public/81ae6a68-54c5-4107-99…> and learn about ITEE DMS user tests Data privacy notice<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aMqr9-hq0lSRZhRPhWZapnnJoY7emOXB/view>. We will then email you your Fair Wizard account information and testing instructions. User test results will help us to design user-friendly maDMP templates and make the UO data management operations more streamlined and useful to our researchers. We also aim to gather information on how maDMP content could be utilised in our service provision for offering services and tools to researchers automatically and timely based on their needs during the research project.
